nuclein (rod-like) elements which have fallen out of erythrocytes or 
hsematoblasts ; Sacharoff (608). — “ Plasma-cells,” a term used in 1875 
for connective-tissue elements rich in protoplasm, and comprised in the 
general category of perivascular tissue. These plasmA-cells of Waldeyer=. 
Ehrlich’s Mcislzellen and eosinophilous cells, but do not correspond at all 
to Unna’s plasma-cells in pathological states of the skin. For the latter 
Waldeyer proposes that the term should be reserved ; Waldeyer (725). — 
Origin of red and white blood corpuscles : both traced to special 
primitive migrant cells ; Saxer (622).

Cuticularisation, process of : modifications in reticular hyaloplasm, 
&c., of the epidermic cells; Chatin (103). — A transitional tissue betwceri 
cartilage and bone in the sclerotic plates of the gecko ( Platydactylus 
fascicularis). It has ramified anastomosing cells, is neither hyaline nor 
fibro-cartilaginous, resembles that in Chimcera or in the head of Cephalo- 
pods, or is like bone arrested midway in development; Ciiatin (105). — 
Microscopic anatomy and physiology of loose connective tissue ; 
Poljakoff (531). — Morphology and biology of the cells of the osseous 
medulla; Arnold (11).— Connective tissue fibrils in umbilical cord and 
in sinews of fingers do not appear to have any direct cellular origin ; 
Merkel (440). — Intercellular spaces and cementing substance. The 
intercellular Bpaces in the Amphibian epidermis are lymph spaces, closed 
superficially by streaks of cement substance. The epithelial cells of the 
Amphibian gut are separated by fine intercellular spaces and connected 
by protoplasmic bridges. Again, there is a notwork of intercellular 
cementing strands, but there is none in endothelium ; Coiin (115).— 
Genesis of intestinal epithelium : nuclei of the connective tissue pass 
among the epithelial cells into the intestine. The connective tissue in 
part formative tissue ; Rouville (594). — Wandering cells of the alimen- 
tary canal ; Hardy & W r esbrook (284). — History of unicellular glands ; 
Kunstler& Gruvel (368).— Degeneration of tadpole’s tail; Ncetzel (493).
